JAR File Index Specification
What is the JAR file index specification? What tools can I use to generate the index file?
✍: FYIcenter.com
The index file of a JAR file contains directory information as to which classes and resources reside in the JAR file. The index file is stored as META-INF/INDEX.LIST in the JAR file.
The index file specification is given below:
index file : version-info blankline section* version-info : JarIndex-Version: version-number version-number : digit+{.digit+}* section : body blankline body : header name* header : char+.jar newline name : char+ newline char : any valid Unicode character except NULL, CR andLF blankline: newline newline newline : CR LF | LF | CR (not followed by LF) digit: {0-9}
Here is a sample of a JAR index file, INDEX.LIST:
JarIndex-Version: 1.0 activation.jar META-INF javax javax/activation com com/sun com/sun/activation com/sun/activation/registries com/sun/activation/viewers
